    How long is the recovery time for something like this and are you able to stay off it that long?

    Wish you the best. toast

    One part of this bill I don’t understand is why does this bill have to form a new community that receive $25 million a year?

    does anyone else use or make this type of holder?

    I have multiple rod holders on my boat. Some are pvc and in the boat deck, some are composite Ram, some are steel tube, and some are the down east ones that clamp to the side of the boat.

    I noticed Eelpout has one. Mabey he will chime in on what one he has and his thoughts.

    I went and tried the string trimmer this year because I was tired of loading the head on the one I had. After two weeks I gave my Toro Pro trimmer away and never thought about it twice. Like Grouse said, more than enough power and the battery still has juice after I am done. I picked up one of the leaf blowers a couple of years ago. I use it a lot to blow out the shop, driveway, deck, and my wife will also use it. She would not touch the gas backpack leaf blower. The run time is just not long enough to take care of the fall leaves. It works great at blowing out the rain gutters and everything else through out the year.

    Orange is the 32” walleye snare and blue is TUCR dead stick. Sorry I don’t have the Panfish snare recorded. The walleye snare and panfish snare use different trip wires. It is easy to see from the picture why I always thought the TUCR dead stick was way too heavy. The TUCR is a solid fiberglass blank and the JT has a glass tip and carbon butt. The carbon butt will have more backbone than the pure glass blank for the same thickness.

    On a more serious note,what does everybody prefer fatheads or shiners?

    I was just glad it was not rainbows. Sheldon, you absolutely need to fire your guide. I know nothing about pool 9. I came in with a great plan from what we learned from the first year only for the river to be very different and my plan foiled. We still had a great time and look forward to the next time.

    It was a lot of fun and we have some good stories. I had my wife delete the pictures that would get us in trouble. I wonder if Chuck ever got his fillings back? The weekend went too fast. It was nice to see everyone. toast

    Maybe, but then they can’t surf on the wake, which is kind of the whole point.

    Correct. But they can still pleasure cruse. So it doesn’t stop them from enjoying one body of water.

    Would outlawing the use of ballast help the problem? Without the extra weight the boat won’t sit the same in the water or create as big of a wake. Would this make it be more like a ski boat and then will ride on plane not causing the damage?

    It’s crazy to think these boats are causing damage to the lakebed in 33’ of water. I almost want to rent one to add some structure to a couple of flat bowl lakes I fish.

    It has been a long time since I have been on a good white bass run. I thought that happened in the spring. I agree that one doesn’t hear about them anymore.

    2 weeks ago the steering went out on my trolling motor. The $300 board that was replaced at the beginning of the year went bad and the company will not stand behind their product since it is over 30 days old. My 12-year-old son came up to “show” me what I was doing wrong and stepped on my favorite custom rod breaking it in half. That blank is no longer made and it can’t be replaced.

    Tried to KVD a big walleye on my new custom rod (shout out to Rodworks) and snapped it. Was such a good rod I had him build me a second.

    This blank is also out of production. But I do have one more left in stock.

    My son asked about this last year because a person was dressing up like this in his school. We talked. This person was always seeking attention. First it started with a tail and the person got the attention it was seeking. But that diminished in a couple of weeks. So that person stepped it up with ears. Then a couple of weeks later added face paint. Every time the attention resided the person would add something to bring it back up.

    I am happy to identify as anything if it gets me out of paying taxes. Doesn’t even have to be all taxes.

    I am also excited about seeing this movie. But I will wait for it to come out on a streaming service unless someone has a suggestion of a theater that has great audio. I have not been amazed by the audio in the last 6 theaters I have been to the point where I won’t go back. Maybe I should have not built such a nice system for my house.

    I don’t have one for sale but would recommend a folding net. My StowMaster is x2 the size of my last net and takes up less room in the boat. Deep nets work great as live wells over the side of the boat. Hope you find one or maybe we should just go together this fall and I will let you be my net man.

    And as a reminder IDO is great for a lot of things, insurance advice is not one of them.

    Can’t wait to see it! Maybe you me and EPG should break it in after all the new stuff. You know spill a beer a couple cig burns and some fish smell. Do it proper.

    You might be too late if it is done by the first week of September. toast

    With Iowaboy’s past, I wonder how long that 115 Suzuki stays “stock”? woot

    I have a receiver you can have. Lots of inputs in the back.

    Good Will could be a good spot to look. Personally I would want something with more power, DSP is always nice, and subwoofer preamp. I feel the garage should have a decent radio. Something that can play loud enough to hear over power tools cleanly. DJ equipment works well. Multiple 15″+ woofers for an area that large. peace

    I have to ask, how on earth does a five year old stay awake riding in a truck for nine hours without taking a nap?????

    Hard to sleep when they don’t stop talking. At least that has been my experience with my son. He has fallen asleep mid-sentence.

    Sounds like you had a great time. It is easy to be out fished by little kids when the bite is good and they don’t unhook their fish. There is no time for you to put your line in the water. I am happy to take that situation any day.

    Well when it comes to rods, I only use Tuned Up, so I don’t have any other recommendations to add. And since the OP direclty mentioned them, I figured I’d chime in. Also, that’s why I always preface my comments by saying that I am biased.

    I can respect that. toast

    I’m definitely biased, but I love my Tuned Up Custom Rods and the new T1 is stellar.

    TUCR makes some nice rods but have you ever recommended something other than a Tuned Up Custom Rod? I understand you work for TUCR and I get the push. I am sorry but I have a hard time taking the word of someone who thinks the best thing available for everything are the products they are sell.
